This score blends growth quality, financial health, and price attractiveness into a single institutional-grade read.

The stock trades at a P/E ratio of 21.3x, above its 5-year median of 20.9x. The PEG ratio of 0.86 suggests earnings growth is outpacing the multiple, a classic sign of undervaluation.

Looking at its own history, CPAY is currently trading more expensive than 60% of the last 5Y on P/E. This places it in the 60th percentile of its historical range, a reasonable but unremarkable position.

Our discounted cash flow model estimates CPAY's intrinsic value at $376.01 per share, against the current market price of $341.58. This implies a margin of safety of +7.82%. The stock is priced close to its estimated fair value, offering limited upside without further operational improvement.

Financial quality is a concern. The Piotroski F-Score of 2/9 flags weakening fundamentals that deserve closer scrutiny before the valuation case can be fully trusted.

Frequently asked questions

Is CPAY overvalued?

CPAY scores 80/100 on our Smart Value Score (Grade A), a strong overall profile. The DCF also shows a positive margin of safety, so price and fundamentals line up reasonably well.

What is CPAY's fair value?

Our DCF model estimates CPAY's intrinsic value at $376.01 per share, versus the current price of $341.58, a margin of safety of +7.82%. Fair value is the present value of the cash flows we project the business to produce, so a price below it means the market is pricing the stock below that conservative estimate.

What P/E ratio does CPAY trade at?

CPAY trades at a P/E of 21.3x on trailing twelve-month earnings, against a 5-year median of 20.9x. P/E is what you pay per dollar of profit, and sitting above its own median means the stock is pricier than usual relative to its earnings.

Is CPAY a buy based on valuation?

Our Smart Value rating for CPAY is Strong Buy, from a Smart Value Score of 80/100 that blends growth, quality, and valuation. The rating leans on growth and financial strength, and valuation is usually the weakest leg for a name scoring this high. This is research to inform your decision, not personalized financial advice.

How does CPAY's valuation compare to its history?

On P/E, CPAY sits in the 60th percentile of its own 5Y range, above its long-run median relative to where it has traded. A high percentile means today's multiple is near the top of its historical band.

What is CPAY's Smart Value Score?

CPAY's Smart Value Score is 80/100. It is a proprietary WallStSmart metric blending growth quality, financial health, and valuation into a single 0-100 read, and scores above 75 are rare, signaling strong multi-factor alignment.
